Quick Recipes

Quick recipes often become favorites! This is a collections of simple, direct, delicious recipes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They are the ones I revisit most often, the easy ones that have a tendency to become staples. I’m a believer that just because a recipe comes together quickly, doesn’t mean it’s less special or delicious.

A chocolate pudding that is hard to beat. From this day forward, if you come to my house for dinner, and I decide chocolate pudding might be a nice finish to the meal, this is the recipe I'll be using.

I call this the magic sauce recipe. In part, because it makes everything it touches shimmy with deliciousness. It's magic like that. Technically, it's a riff on a chimichurri sauce - one that has veered off the rails in a big way.

Blender dressings are great, in part, because they're fast. Everything into one container, puree, and you're set. This one is great - carrots, turmeric, coconut milk, shallot, and ginger come together into a dressing perfect for everything from green salads to grain salads, or as a brilliant finishing touch for sautéed, steamed, or simmered vegetables.
